3. Nov 10: Kolkata International Film Festival

Ever thought of making a trip to Kolkata for their International Film Festival? We didn't think so. But the festival, held from Nov 10 to 17, and now in its 20th year, gives us an impressive bunch of reasons to book our tickets for next year—2014 saw films like Lars von Trier's Nymphomaniac, the Kristin Scott Thomas-led Clouds of Sils Maria and Sundance-favourite Whiplash.

4. Nov 11: Emma Stone debuts on Broadway

America's other sweetheart (we're not talking about Jennifer Lawrence) made her Broadway debut this week with the musical Cabaret. Taking on the role of cabaret singer Sally Bowles, previously portrayed by Michelle Williams, Stone took a tearful bow with Alan Cumming and the rest of the cast on the musical’s opening night in New York.

6. Nov 12: Hunger Games: Mockingjay’s London premiere

What's getting us excited for the Hunger Games: Mockingjay promotional tour? It’s not just the buildup to the movie’s release, but the fact that we have countless opportunities to drool over the red-carpet style of an oh-so-classic Julianne Moore, a ballsy Elizabeth Banks, and an always-Dior-outfitted Jennifer Lawrence. Kicking off the spree of sightings is the London premiere.

That’s right – you read correctly. Italian couturier Giambattista Valli and denim brand Seven for All Mankind are working together on a spring 2015 collection, to launch in two parts—the first in February and the next in May. Everything Valli touches turns to red carpet-gold, so we can’t wait to see what this collaboration has in store for us.

8. Nov 15: Kendall Jenner announced as new face of Estee Lauder

Move over Cara Delevingne—Kendall Jenner is the new model-of-the-moment. She’s walked the runway for every major designer from Givenchy and Chanel to Marc Jacobs and Dolce & Gabbana, and has just been named the new global face of Estee Lauder.

The sporty trend shows no signs of slowing down, so it's no wonder that Masaba Gupta plans to launch a sportswear line next year, co-designed by none other than cricketing legend Viv Richards—who just so happens to be her father. We can't wait to see what emerges from this cool collaboration.
